RCE Projects

RCE Lucknow and RCE Greater Western Sydney organised a Sustainability Exchange Programme from 27 November - 7 December, 2018 at Lucknow in India. Developed by the Centre for Environment Education (CEE) in association with Western Sydney University (WSU) and University of Lucknow, this interdisciplinary two-week course focused on bringing integrated perspectives on sustainability along ecological and social dimensions and used them to examine critical themes of importance to India, such as population, water, health and climate change in view of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

The course focused on SDG 6, looking at water and health issues in urban and rural contexts and looking at the role of ESD in achieving the SDGs. A group of 20 Graduate students from various streams joined from Western Sydney University and 32 students from the University of Lucknow participated in the programme. The course included classroom sessions, interaction with experts, visit to slums, villages, schools and protected areas.
